Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) . A mass m is attached to a spring with spring constant k, as shown in Figure 2.53. The mass is pulled to the right a distance of 0.2 m and released. Rank the following spring-mass combinations according to their oscillation periods from shortest to longest. If any combinations have the same period, give them the same rank. You should assume that there is no friction between the mass and the horizontal surface.
